        I've suddenly found myself with $800 I didn't plan on having,
looks like its time for a new monitor. I currently have a slightly
psychotic hercules monitor. I'd like to use the windows/code view
combination, but I'm not sure exactly how to go about it - been
developing with toolbook (choke! puke! dBase DLL needs a visit
from an exterminator) and actor, and I'd like to move into some sort
of OO C environment. Anyway, heres the plan now ...


      DFI VGA card with Trident chipset + 512k of ram - where I shop
      these things are $104. Not as cool as the orchid card, but
      50% of the cost.

      NEC multisync 3D. I've seen these in use, and like 'em a lot.
      If theres something cheap that works as well, I'd go for it,
      but I've found skimping on hardware always bites you in the ass,
      sooner or later.

    If you've had a bad experience with either of these devices, or
think you know something better, mail me. If you sell either of
these units (prefer new /w warantee), don't hesitate to mail me
a quote.
